How Can Placenta Stem Cell Therapy Help Cancer Patients?

What is Cancer?

Cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells anywhere in a body. The abnormal cells are termed cancer cells, malignant cells, or tumor cells. Many cancers and the abnormal cells that compose the cancer tissue are further identified by the name of the tissue that the abnormal cells originated from (for example, breast cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer).

Cancer is not confined to humans; animals and other living organisms can get cancer. Below is a schematic that shows normal cell division and how when a cell is damaged or altered without repair to its system, the cell usually dies. Also shown is what can occur when such damaged or unrepaired cells do not die and become cancer cells and proliferate with uncontrolled growth; a mass of cancer cells develop. Frequently, cancer cells can break away from this original mass of cells, travel through the blood and lymph systems, and lodge in other organs where they can again repeat the uncontrolled growth cycle. This process of cancer cells leaving an area and growing in another body area is termed metastatic spread or metastatic disease. For example, if breast cancer cells spread to a bone (or anywhere else), it means that the individual has metastatic breast cancer.

There are over 200 types of cancers; most can fit into the following categories according to the National Cancer Institute:
Carcinoma: Cancer that begins in the skin or in tissues that line or cover internal organs.

Leukemia: Cancer that starts in blood-forming tissue such as the bone marrow and causes large numbers of abnormal blood cells to be produced and enter the blood

Lymphoma and myeloma: Cancers that begin in the cells of the immune system

Central nervous system cancers: Cancers that begin in the tissues of the brain and spinal cord

In the U.S., according to the National Cancer Institute in 2010, the most common cancers (excluding non-melanoma skin cancers) are listed below:

The three most common cancers in men, women and children in the U.S. are as follows:

Men: Prostate, lung, and colorectal

Women: Breast, colorectal, and lung

Children: Leukemia, brain tumors, and lymphoma

The incidence of cancer and cancer types are influenced by many factors such as age, sex, race, local environmental factors, diet, and genetics. Consequently, the incidence of cancer and cancer types vary depending on these variable factors. For example, the World Health Organization (WHO) provides the following general information about cancer worldwide:

Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. It accounted for 7.4 million deaths (around 13% of all deaths) in 2004 (statistics published in 2009).

Deaths from cancer worldwide are projected to continue rising, with an estimated 12 million deaths in 2030.

Different areas of the world may have cancers that are either more or less predominant then those found in the U.S. One example is that stomach cancer is often found in Japan, while it is rarely found in the U.S. The objective of this article is to introduce the reader to general aspects of cancers. It is designed to be an overview of cancer and cannot cover every cancer type. This article will also attempt to help guide the reader to more detailed sources about specific cancer types

Stem Cell Treatment of Oncological Diseases

Currently, stem cell transplants are a widely used therapy for a few types of cancers, specifically for types of leukemias and lymphomas (both are blood cancers). Worldwide research, especially in Russia, has demonstrated stem cells give a positive effect to patients with all (without exception) forms of cancer pathology and in all phases of the disease. Especially in cases, when it is impossible to continue the anti-tumor treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy) because of complications or individual intolerance.

During the course of chemotherapy and radiotherapy (irradiation), in case of such complications as leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, agranulocytosis, hepatitis, depression, wasting, enteropathy, alopecia, etc., transplantation of stem cells promotes rapid restoration of peripheral blood parameters after chemotherapy, improvement of the overall condition, and helps prevent complications.

After chemotherapy and radiotherapy (irradiation), administration of stem cells contributes to restoration of anti-tumor immunity (including NK cells) as well as of erythrocytes and leukocytes; it also contributes to decrease in weakness of the patient, improvement of patient’s overall condition, psycho-emotional status and quality of life.

How Can Placenta Stem Cell Therapy (PST) Help Cancer Patients?
As detailed above stem cells have demonstrated their ability to aid the cancer patient in a number of positive ways. The Placenta stem cell and related protocol for cancer are designed to be used with conventional medicine to give you the best of both.
PST takes a overall system-approach to combating the wide variety of cancer symptoms and underlying causes. Placenta / Stem Cell Therapy (PST) and their unique growth factors have a positive health Impact on cancer and cancer related issues because they enhance, repair and regenerate these Three Major Biological Systems in the body:
IMMUNE SYSTEM: (IMMUNOMODULATING THERAPY)

The scientific community is focusing much attention on this complex system because so many illnesses result from aberrations in this area. These are the auto-immune diseases (Rheumatoid arthritis, Lupus, Multiple sclerosis etc.) Many conditions like tuberculosis (TB), shingles or chronic infections start when the Immune system is down because of many conditions such as stress, steroid therapy, cancer therapy, or AIDS. PST provides all the vital substances and growth factors but without the toxicity due to their perfect balance in an organ (placenta) that is not designed or manipulated by humans. These substances, along with the increase in "Natural Killer" (NK) cells (these cells are responsible to attack cancerous or infected cells while they are circulating in our body) reset the Immune system the way it was when we were younger.

If this system is in top condition, the degenerative illnesses are delayed or stopped, the auto-immune conditions are helped and chronic infections are better controlled. The fact that the immune system is "awake" is the reason this therapy is now considered a preventative measure against cancer.

HORMONAL SYSTEM:

Studies done in men and women have shown that after the placenta is implanted, the hormonal profile is reset to the way it was years before. In men, there is a noticeable improvement of the initial rates of male hormones, and a new glandular balance that gives more energy and increases the libido. Recent discoveries about Prostate enlargement involve an alteration in sexual hormones as the main reason the prostate grows out of control. This explains why the PST can help this condition tremendously.
In women, the treatment appears to be an interesting alternative to Estrogen Replacement Therapy, given that there is a conversion of minor androgens to estrogen, and an increased secretion of progesterone without the possible side effects.

The fact that the placenta has so many Growth factors, explains why Placenta Stem Cell (PSC) patients are noticing the same improved anti-aging benefits usually attributed to HGH replacement therapy, such as:

As we all know, the most important nutrients that the body needs to be alive and healthy are, Oxygen and Glucose, and those are delivered by millions of blood vessels all over the body. With aging the circulation becomes less efficient, and if you add other factors like smoking, being sedentary, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and other lipids, the result is that very important organs like the brain, heart, skin and ultimately the whole body suffers the effects of that inefficiency: poor memory, drier and paler skin, no energy and basically all the signs of aging appear. One of the first signals of improvement with PSC therapy is that the skin color becomes pinker and warmer after just two or three days of the implants, and the skin texture is better in just 3 to 4 weeks. That effect could be explained because of the Vascular Growth Factors that the placenta has along with the millions of Stem Cells.

By enhancing, repairing and regenerating these 3 main systems of the body, Cancer sufferers have the potential to receive remarkable improvements in their condition. See some cancer testimonials in the Testimonials section of our website.

At the Optimum Health Regeneration Center, we focus on the best options to treat the source of your condition that will improve the quality of your life NOW and in the future!

Stem cell treatments provided by the Optimum Health Regeneration Center and its cooperating clinic occur in Mexico and hence are outside the boundaries of the U.S. and therefore are not currently approved by the FDA.

While the stem cell debate continues, OHRC is working towards documenting scientific proof so that we may be able to conduct treatments within the U.S., but at this point in time, our patients must come to us.

NOTE: Stem cell treatments are not a cure for any condition, disease or injury and there is no claim to cure or guarantee an improvement in anyone’s condition.
